The fifth episode was originally meant to be the first: the unofficial pilot, complete with all its glitches and a lengthy rehearsal phase. The theme is “chaos in the head”, including chaos theory. Guests are Roberto Blanco, Pompöös fashion designers Harald Glööckler and Dieter Schroth, and Atari Teenage Riot; the contestant family is the Kurtisevic family. “Genome of the Week”: Guido Westerwelle.

Guests are Bärbel Schäfer, Heidi Hoppe, Cindy & Bert, Mambo Kurt and H.M.S.; the contestant family is the Radloff family. “Genome of the Week”: Angela Merkel.

The seventh episode is about Africa, including a text on the significance of Leon Trotsky for today’s Africa.

The final episode is about the end of the revolution and draws on Richard Wagner’s 1849 essay “Die Revolution”.
